My name is Katie and I am 18 years old. I graduated in June 2012 with my high school diploma after experiencing a variety of schooling. Because I participated in Running Start at the same time, I also graduated cum laude with both my Associates of Art (A.A.) Degree and Associate of General Studies (A.G.S.) Degree from Edmonds Community College. I am a seven time published poet and have also won awards for my poetry. Language Arts (English, writing, grammar) is my passion, but I also have experience in other subject areas.
I have worked (as a volunteer) with elementary aged children for five years at an elementary school as a teacher assistant, helping students with assignments (mostly English and math). I also enjoy helping my friends and family with English related projects or assignments. Ever since middle school and especially during my quarters at college, I have often helped my classmates and friends with papers and other assignments, proofreading and giving ideas.
As a hands-on visual learner, I have come to understand how students learn differently and am familiar with a few "tried and true" methods of learning. I have a lot of patience when working with students and am very considerate of their way of learning. I look forward to hearing from you and being able to help in any way I can!
